More rail means somewhere to put a light, a laser and a hand stop without them all competing for the same three slots, and a longer sight radius if you shoot irons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe handguard is fully licensed M-LOK with the KAC markings, matched by the receiver engraving. Two QD sling sockets are built in, one at the receiver and one at the rear of the handguard, so a two-point sling goes straight on. The stock has five positions and locks without play.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInternally it is VFC’s version 3: steel trigger, hammer and sear, a revised gas system that holds velocity steady, and backward compatibility with older VFC gas magazines. It is also the receiver most people buy when they intend to build a KS-1 or an L403A1, because the lower and the fire control group are what those builds keep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:16px;color:#1B3A6B;margin:18px 0 8px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#1B3A6B;color:#fff;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:7px 12px;text-align:left;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:7px 12px;text-align:left;\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eKnight's Armament SR16E3, licensed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eCarbine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eSystem\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eVFC V3 gas blowback, CO2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eFull metal, steel fire control internals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eHandguard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eLicensed M-LOK with KAC markings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eControls\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eAmbidextrous selector, bolt release and magazine release\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eStock\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eFive position adjustable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eSling mounting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eTwo QD points, receiver rear and handguard rear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eMuzzle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eThree-prong flash hider, 14mm counter-clockwise thread\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eSights\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e20mm rail mounted flip up and down\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eHop-up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eAdjustable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eMagazine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eVFC M4 GBBR, CO2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eParts compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eAccepts real-steel pistol grips and stocks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eBarrel length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eNot stated by the manufacturer at time of writing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eOverall length and weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eNot stated by the manufacturer at time of writing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eVelocity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eNot stated by the manufacturer at time of writing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:16px;color:#1B3A6B;margin:18px 0 8px;\"\u003eGood to know before you buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe figures VFC publish for this one are thinner than for the CQB.
